She just turned six months and continues to be a super happy smiley-pants! She smiles at everyone, but particularly loves smiling at her sister! She laughs at Anneke no matter what she's doing to her. The other day I turned around to find Anneke pulling Kaelyn across the living room floor by her arms, and Kaelyn was laughing. So we are really having to keep a close eye on the two of them since Kaelyn doesn't cry when she's being tormented!
We just had her 6 month appointment yesterday. She weighs 19lbs 15oz (in the 85th percentile) and is 70 cm long (27.5 inches-90th percentile).
She LOVES the jolly jumper and the exersaucer (applesaucer, in Anneke's terms).
She is rolling, mostly just from her back to her stomach but the past couple of days she's started going from her stomach to her back more frequently, which is nice for me. She's already moving around when she's on her stomach--she pushes herself backwards and can get across the room pretty quickly, but then also pushes herself away from her toys, which she doesn't like.
She likes the swing outside.
We started rice cereal last week. She's not a huge fan, but she doesn't spit it out either.
She still won't take a bottle or a soother. Mom V got her to take a bottle once while she was sleeping when we were at a concert, but it didn't work a second time (she won't be fooled!).
She is having a bit of trouble with a cough that won't go away. The doctor thinks it might be reactive airway disease, which clears up as they get older. But since yesterday she's on two puffers and acid reflux medication and we're being referred to the asthma clinic at the hospital to see the pediatrician there (although the doctor doesn't think it's asthma). The coughing is really starting to impede on her (and our) sleeping though, so we're hoping something works!
Anyways, here are some pictures of our happy girl--enjoy!
